The description of skull osteology is based on the ex- amination of 6 skulls of C. pritchardi. Comparison is performed with skulls of 7 C. longicollis, 15 C. novaeguineae (12 from New Guinea, 3 from Australia), and 2 C. reimanni. Refer to Figures 3 and 9-11 for skull illustrations of the four species and Tables 3 and 4 and Figures 12-14 for additional skull measurements and ratios.
